M234 is the name assigned previously. You get the URI(s) of available printer(s) by running the program driverless. E.g.: root@dragon:~# driverless ipps://HP%20LaserJet%20MFP%20M234sdw%20(C0FB67)._ipps._tcp.local/ root@dragon:~# Then feed that into: lpadmin -p M234 -v "URI" -E -m everywhere But edit in a better (for you) name for the printer than M234. You might get away with something like: lpadmin -p heskett.printer -v "$(driverless)" -E -m everywhere but I haven't experimented with that. -- Does anybody read signatures any more? https://charlescurley.com https://charlescurley.com/blog/
